We had the Fall Faculty Workshop on campus today. It began with a prayer (SHU is a Catholic uni), and our new chaplin decided to light incence before starting the prayer. Very smokey incence. About 5 minutes into it, the fire alarm went off. Everybody started laughing, we couldn't help it. Someone carried the smoking bowl out of the auditorium, and a little while later the alarm went off and he picked up where he'd left off.
During one of the breaks I asked the chaplin if he was going to set off the sprinkler system next time... :) I've never met a priest with a sense of humor before. Nor one with very obvious (and probably expensive) highlights in his hair!
